One year ago, Movado and fuseproject collaborated to create Edge. We have now designed a follow-on Signature Edition, triggered by new innovations in material and process.

The material innovation is a reflection of our ongoing partnership with Movado, and our commitment to continually evolve the Edge collection which has become an instant brand icon and success. As the brand’s first major design partnership with an industrial designer since the launch of the iconic Museum Dial watch in 1947, Movado and Yves Behar are committed to continue to explore the brand’s modernist legacy, through new minimalist single-material dial designs and new material possibilities.

These Special Edition Edge watches are available now through Movado here.

The question that Dr. Karp sought to answer was, Is there a way to utilize robotic technology, AI and design to create the world’s first smart baby sleeper; a bed that could automatically deliver the 5 S’s to calm infant crying and to help babies—and exhausted new parents—get more sleep?”

Harvey invited me to join the project to develop a design for this special sleeper—called, SNOO. I wanted to create a baby bed as elegantly simple and organically natural as Dr. Karp’s five-step technique. It had to be easy to use, provide a sense of trust and comfort and fit beautifully into the context of any home. I was excited by the challenge of developing an intelligent and timeless design to redefine the concept of infant sleep for the 21st century.

That awful feeling of losing an important item: the Tile team and fuseproject partnered to design it out of our lives.

With the Tile Bluetooth network, all it takes to keep track of items is to stick the Tile technology to the things we don’t want to lose. The design work started with explorations and questions as to how this tracking network can serve us with our everyday items. What are the new form factors that reflect daily scenarios and use cases? What will be thin enough to slip into my passport or sketchbook? What is small enough to track my bike, purse, and that sentimental winter coat?

Data is something that all of us accumulate at an accelerating pace. But “data” is a superfluous word to describe the digital bits that represent our personal memories, our work and hobbies, and our entertainment. The quantity of those bits, and our relationship to them is changing from trusting the world with it, to wanting to safeguard and preserve it for ourselves and our families. How can the storage of personal data be refined to reflect these changes?

This was the question that drove our partnership with Western Digital – the world’s leader in data storage. We worked with WD to roadmap the future of the products and services that reflect new needs, with a focus on providing a better experience with a more elevated design. This new design approach is representing physically, functionally and metaphorically the ideas in which the brand lives. The point of focus is placed at the center of the product, with a soft waist transition that splits the composition in two halves. With a design split in two parts we are expressing the tension between a personal and tactile object, and the seriousness of quality storage technology.

A personal touch with tactile materiality, vibrant colors, size-optimized and expressive design are all ways in which our design language is meant to amplify our personal connection to data and treat it as something beyond a commodity.

While micro living spaces enable developers to provide more housing options in dense urban environments, and allow renters and buyers affordability and a smaller carbon footprint, they clearly lack the advantages for life’s different accommodations that larger apartments provide. A team of MIT engineers saw this as an opportunity – how do we maximize our use of these spaces, providing the experience of luxury living without the luxury of size? Better yet, what if your living space could physically transform to create any environment you need? We teamed up with Ori to design a system of robotic furniture: transformable units that can turn 200-300 square feet into a bedroom, living room, home office and closet.

The Ori team built the technology – actuators, electronics and software to glide heavy furniture and connect it to other smart devices – our goal was to find a single unit scenario that would maximize the value of a micro studio or one bedroom apartment. The inaugural design for Ori does just this: a single unit can transform into a bedroom, office, and living room, all with the touch of a button. Users can magically transform and move the heavy unit as though it was weightless, and a corresponding app lets you rearrange the settings from anywhere.

The way we experience our living spaces, and maybe one day offices too, now has the ability go past the static structural elements of the past. This is the power of Ori and its design – benefiting everyone involved by providing magical experiences, with functionality that alters our day-to-day lives. Powered by Ori, will make studio city living a practical, comfortable and beautiful experience.

The benefits of cold-pressed juice are clear – when your ingredients come directly from the farm and are pressed properly, the results are a nutrient-dense, delicious, healthy glass of juice. However, the cold-pressing system is complex; as it takes factory-size industrial equipment, and a supply chain system that allows for delivery of farm-fresh fruits and vegetables within days.

With Juicero, we have designed a countertop cold-press juicer, with a system to deliver farm-fresh packs of perfectly-diced fruits and vegetables right to your door. While the juicer looks simple – a discreet white device with gentle curves and only one button – it’s what is inside that makes the machine so incredible. A brightly colored surface behind the robust aluminum door holds the packet in place, and with 4 tons of force it delivers delicious and healthy at-home cold-press juice. The machine is also smart: if your pack is expired, a scanner inside will stop it from pressing the juice.

Whether you have already discovered the benefits of juicing, or are looking for a seamless way to introduce it to your life, Juicero is bringing cold-pressed juice right to your countertop. Try it and see for yourself!

A brand is not a logo. However, for most brands, the logo lives at the epicenter of the visual identity. Often the first brand touch point, a logo can define people’s experience of your brand, and guides perceptions, differentiation, affinity and loyalty.

“Design is driven by ideas, and ideas create the conversation between brands and people. A logo is the first line of that conversation, it’s the prelude for the ensuing digital experiences, product and brand dialogue” says Yves Behar.

“A logo should express the essence of a brand in its simplest and most refined form. Everything from a subtle radius to a dramatic angle makes an impact in a logo’s design, which is why these minute details can be so important in crafting a rich narrative in a small space. When the viewer sees the final design, the idea that is core to the brand should come across instantly,” says Kristine Arth, Director of Brand at fuseproject.

Today in Basel, Switzerland, our partnership with Movado moves further on the Edge…literally. After the successful launch of our initial Edge collection last fall, we continue our collaboration with the release of several new watches.

These new watches are an exploration of the original Edge design language, playing with materials, bands and bezels. New copper faces create a color contrast, mixing cold and warm tones for surprising effects. For the women’s bands, we chose a new bracelet bangle to complement the slim bezel, and added a nickeled patterning around its edges. More to come…

In the year 2016, it’s safe to say that we are immersed in an era of digital technology. At this moment, the newest and most innovative technologies are being showcased at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. However, parallel to the rise of digital production, we also see a renaissance of craft. This idea is most exemplified in the film industry – as digital film becomes ubiquitous, we see more and more filmmakers coming back to their roots in film.

With this in mind, we are excited to announce a partnership with Kodak to revive the Super 8 camera – the device that shot some of the most iconic films in history, or your childhood memories. The design is focused on combining digital technology such as an LCD screen with new materials and ergonomic features, enabling users to experience the craft of 8mm filmmaking with modern qualities.
